Prediction: 2-0
Honduras
Following a heart-breaking loss to Canada, USA will look to return to winning ways in the World Cup qualifiers when they take on Honduras at Allianz Field. The Yanks aim to melt Canada’s advantage in the standings, and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against los Catrachos. Talented attacker Ricardo Pepi is widely expected to return to the starting XI, while Christian Pulisic should pose a big threat to the opposition back-line.
Honduras, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 2-0 loss to El Salvador, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling USA’s party at Allianz Field. When the two teams met in San Pedro Sula earlier in the process USA rolled over Honduras 4-1, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on the home side.
Highlighted Player (Weston McKennie):
After starting his youth career at FC Dallas, Weston McKennie moved to Germany in the summer of 2016, signing a contract with Bundesliga side Schalke 04. The American footballer made his Bundesliga debut on May 20, 2017, coming as a substitute in the 77th minute of the match.
The talented midfielder scored his first goal in the German elite division on August 6, 2018 in a 2-0 win at Fortuna Dusseldorf. Speaking of his international career, the Schalke footballer made his debut with United States of America on November 14, 2017 in a friendly against Portugal, finding the net on his debut.
Weston McKennie has two caps for the USA U20 team as well. His main position is central midfield, but he used as both defensive and attacking midfielder as well. The USA international was born in Fort Lewis, Washington on August 28, 1998. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Honduras):
Honduras are a national football team from Central America that qualified for the World Cup finals for the first time in 1982. Los Catrachos did well to share the spoils with hosts Spain at the showpiece tournament, but they eventually failed to book their place in the knockout stages.
Honduras participated at the 2010 and the 2014 FIFA World Cup finals as well, but they failed to impress at the tournaments in South Africa and Brazil. Winning of the 1981 CONCACAF Championship is undisputedly the team’s biggest success and it has to be noted that they finished the final round in top position in the standings, two points clear of El Salvador and three above Mexico.
Los Catrachos were beaten by Canada in the 1985 Gold Cup final, with the team finishing the 1991 tournament as runners-up as well. Wilson Palacios, who used to play for the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Stoke City as regarded as one of the most notable footballers who represented Honduras national team on the international stage.
